【中考英语作文范文我最喜欢的节日】The Spring Festival is my favorite holiday. It is the most important traditional festival in China. Every year, people celebrate it with great joy and happiness.
During the Spring Festival, families get together to have a big dinner on New Year’s Eve. We eat delicious food like dumplings, fish, and rice cakes. These foods have special meanings. For example, dumplings look like gold ingots, which means wealth. Fish means "surplus" every year.
Children love the Spring Festival because they can wear new clothes and receive red envelopes filled with money from their elders. The red envelopes are given as a symbol of good luck and blessings.
Another thing I like about the Spring Festival is the firecrackers and fireworks. They make loud noises and bright lights in the sky. Although some people think they are noisy, I find them very exciting and fun.
The Spring Festival is also a time for cleaning and decorating homes. People clean their houses to sweep away bad luck and welcome good fortune. They put up red couplets and lanterns to make the house look more festive.
In short, the Spring Festival is not only a time for family reunions but also a time to celebrate Chinese culture. I really enjoy this festival and look forward to it every year.
